A Proclamation for The Old & Dangerous Christian


A Proclamation for The Old & Dangerous Christian

2 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES

LORD, I DECLARE, in the mighty name of Jesus, you are my shelter and you’ll protect me from all humiliation and disgrace. When the enemy comes against me you’ll turn your ear to me and rescue me, save me, and deliver me from all my enemies.

I declare, in the mighty name of Jesus, that you are my Rock, my Fortress, my Solid Ground, and that you keep me safe. When evil men and devils assail me, O God, you will deliver me from the power of sinful, unjust, and cruel men. You are my hope, O Lord. I have trusted you since I was young. I will sing your praises and proclaim your power all day long. Thank you, Lord, for not setting me aside now when I am old and when my dumb enemies think that you have dumped me and that I am worn out, and of no use.

Lord God, cover these devils with shame. Pulverize them with contempt and disgrace. If the enemy wants me to shut up and despair, I will do the opposite by keeping hope alive and increasing my praise and worship of you ten-fold. Yes, Lord ... if they want to shut me up I will increase my telling of your merciful acts. I will tell everyone about how you deliver through your great power and how holy and just you are.

Holy Spirit, where the enemy has tried to shut me down, I ask you as my hair turns gray, that you not only not abandon me, but give me a fresh vision and mission to talk about your power and strength to the next generation.

Father, I proclaim, that even though I’ve seen hard times and I’ve experienced some truly horrible days, you will restore me again and raise me up from the pit. Not only that, but you will greatly increase my status and comfort me much to the chagrin of devils and evil men. I thank you for your faithfulness. I will shout for joy because of you. I will sing your praises and will celebrate your powerful saving grace.

All day long I will proclaim how you hammered those who plotted to bring me harm, and now they’re the ones who are ashamed and humiliated, in Jesus’s name, amen!

Jesus Was No Joel Osteen 3 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES I would be willing to give up my left testicle just to have had the opportunity to have heard Jesus preach while He was kickin’ up dust on the mean streets of the Middle East two-thousand years ago. Can you imagine actually beholding the Incarnate Word actually preaching the Word? I don’t know about you, but I hope they have videos of Him preaching that I can watch once I get to heaven because I guarantee that was some epic ... holy ... stuff....

Biblical Masculinity Scares Evil Leaders 2 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES Before Jesus formally stepped into his earthly ministry, when He was a wee little baby, merely cooing and pooping in his swaddling clothes and breastfeeding off the Virgin Mary’s mammaries, He had King Herod try to kill Him. Herod was an insecure, toady, little leader who was extremely paranoid that someone was going to take his authority from him. Herod killed anyone, including friends, family, and foes, whom he deemed a threat...

Keep Your Head on a Swivel 2 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES "The joy of the Lord will arm us against the assaults of our spiritual enemies and put our mouths out of taste for those pleasures with which the tempter baits his hooks." - Matthew Henry Paul closes with this: “Be on the alert…” (Eph. 6:18b) That’s not casual language. That’s urgent. Because you can have everything— and still lose— if you’re not paying attention. Most people don’t fall— because of one big moment. They drift. Slow. Subtle....
